Wikipedia philosophies

[edit]

As regards the various Wikipedia philosophies, I would subscribe to the following:

This user is a member of the Association of Eventualist Wikipedians.
This user is a member of the Association of Categorist Wikipedians.
This user is a member of the Association of Inclusionist Wikipedians.

The motto of the AIW is conservata veritate, which translates to "with the preserved truth".
This motto reflects the inclusionist desire to change Wikipedia only when no knowledge would be lost as a result.
